Most people who live in the great state of Texas agree that living here is awesome. There is so much to do and see, even if you live in rural Texas, you won’t have to drive too far to find something to do or a new area to explore. But what about when hard working Texans want to take a break outside of their home state?

When I started looking around online for results, I wasn’t sure what to expect, part of me was guessing that maybe Cancun, Mexico would be on that list because it’s only a couple hour flight from DFW, Austin or Houston. But there were no Mexico destinations that made the list of the most popular vacation spots for Texans.  

Looking for Road Trip Ideas? 

When I found a list created by Trip 101 I quickly noticed that the destinations listed mostly seemed like road trip vacations, which can be a lot of fun. They can be a bit easier and less stress than packing up the whole family and trying to rush them through an airport before running to make sure you don’t miss your flight. Remember, vacation is about relaxing not stressing.
